Is it just me (as I haven’t heard much about it in the news) but is this Conte/Chelsea/Sarri situation very weird even by their standards? ;hmm

So the summary is:Conte was expected to leave at end of seasonSarri was offered job to take over and waits for Conte to leaveAncelotti agreed to take over from Sarri at Napoli once he replaced Conte Conte has started pre-season training with ChelseaConte is still expected to leaveSarri’s release clause expires shortly, meaning the original agreement with Chelsea is basically void Transfer window closes in around 5 weeks, Chelsea are unable to make signings until it is sorted

But not much has been made of it, yet I think it is amazing for a club of their supposed stature. Then there’s the Abramovich stuff.

I think Roman has finally realised that by sacking managers reasonably regularly and paying off huge contracts, it becomes a good reason for managers wanting to be employed by him in the first place. So unlucky Antonio may have to stick it out.
